no branch of active service is heroic
sacrifice so marked as among our aviators.
-Their splendid spirit is well revealed in a
letter to his parents written by an aviator
hive days before he made the supreme
sacrifice. It says in part:
"If the news ever reaches you,
which sooner or later reaches
every flyer's parents --don't
mourn. We R. F. C. men never
think of death; the . only thing we
think of is the effect our passing
may have on our dear ones. So if
I go the usual way, don't let dear
niumsy cry, wear black, and all
that sort of nonsense. Dad, don't
you get all upset. Keep the show
going, smile and carry on . "
"Keep the show going, smile and carry on,"
that's the spirit. Many boys and girls are
too young to enlist to "keep the show go-
ing" but an opportunity is offering to, be
of service now: the. flak -growers want help,
and the Organization of Resources Com-
mittee are behind a movement to save the
fibre for making the cloth for aeroplane
wings, of which the allied armies are in
very urgent need. Boys and girls, young
men and women, and; even old men, may
enlist their services for this work. For the
convenience of the workers, automobiles
will be provided to take them to the fields
and back. Six strong boys giving attention
to the work should be capable of pulling
an acre of flax a day, and as the offered
wage is $15.00 an acre (which is the recog-
nized rate of the Flax -growers' Associa-
tion) this means an average of $2.50 a day
to the lads.
WOMEN GIRLS 4
and Men, youcanearn $4.00 or over 15, you can earn from $1.50
more a day pulling flax. to $3.00 a day pullingflax.
BOYS
over 15, you can earn from $1.0
to $3.00 a day pulling flax.
You can work for ` the Local Flax Mill, the address of which is given below.

Flax is used to make the wings of aero-
planes. The grade of flax depends upon
its being walled at the right time. if the
ax is over ripe its quality deteriorates.

RAIN STOPPED OFFENSIVE.
0011 WO:tater Ilday Be Signal for
New German Attack.
LONDON,. July 15.—Rainy weath-
er in Northern France has caused
thorough soaking of the groand, par-
ticularly in low-lying portions of the
battie front, and not inconceivably
has bad something to do with delay
of Germans in renewing their offen-
sive.
It is a month since the last offen-
sive died down, swamped by the tide
of French success on the banks of
the Matz, nOrth of Compiegne, and
there is as yet no sign of the enemy's
being ready to strike again,
Meanwhile the Allies have been
pushing back German lines little by
little at various important points,
hardly a daY going by without a
French or a British attack. These in
the aggregate have gained _valuable
defensive ground and resulted as
well in talting thousands of Germans
German raiding troops who Satur-
day night attempted to penetrate the
British lines east of Locre were re-
pulsed with loss, the British War Of-
fice announced. The German artilery
was active in the regions of Albert,
Kemniel Hill and Ypres.

ing the German foreign policy and
blaming the German Clovernment for

LONDON, July 15. --Gordon
in a despatch to tbe Daily News front
the French front strys: Any fact that
can have possible bearing on the
forthcoming offensive is of such. in-
terest that the following sta,tements
of officers recently made prisoner
may be quoted for what theY are
worth. One type, speaking of Amer-
icans, ,said: "They are young and
splendid chaps. Frenchmen are put-
ting lots of confidence in them, and
unfortunately they are not wrong."
Another said; "Our morale has
never been as low as it now 18, we
are lacking everything and our men
will be unable to resist a well -
delivered blow..." 1 nave referred,
ecently to evidences of sickness in
the German army, and, the following
order recently taken confirms the
fact at any rate so far as one division
is concerned. This general's order
states: "I hardly think there is any
regiment in which at the present mo-
ment any single officer is in a per-
fect state of health." "

NEW YOIIK, July 15.-- Six per-
sons are reported killed and fifteen

chored in tbe harbor Saturday. The

marine -chasers hurried to the scene
of the burning vessel and took tine
injured men ashore to hospitals.
The ship, of 2,156 tons gross, had
a cargo of motor trucks and. oil in-
tended for use by the American
